I have a dell laptop with Dell diagnostics in /dev/hda1, windows xp
in /dev/hda2 and linux in /dev/hda3..on.  There's no problem with making
grub boot from /dev/hdax or /dev/sdax, where x is not 1.

So I can still access the dell partition, I have this in grub.conf:

title Dell Diagnostics
   lock
   rootnoverify (hd0,0)
   chainloader +1

HTH,
